I like the fact it is an actual name and yet I can honour two people.

What do you think?

Lovely name. Does it exist in English, though? It does in Polish and I think I prefer the way it would be pronounced in that language, with double 'n'. Not sure about English pronounciation. Hmm. But very nice name all the same.

Love it. It's on my list for dd2

onlysmallsocks · 06/11/2011 10:05

well according to the net: PRONOUNCED: mer-ee-AN-É™ (English), mar-ee-AN-É™ (English), mahr-YAHN-nah (Polish)

I actually like either 3. So guess I would have to pick one.

Very pretty. I like it.

Rhubarbgarden · 06/11/2011 13:28

I like it but I prefer Marianne as I think 4 syllables is a little excessive.

Note2Self · 06/11/2011 19:47

Beautiful. If I had another DD I would use it.

BibiBelle · 06/11/2011 20:22

It's beautiful but also prefer Marianne

HighHeidYin · 06/11/2011 20:24

Really like it. Not keen on Marianne though.

PattySimcox · 06/11/2011 20:24

V pretty but prefer Marianne.

My friend's daughter is Marianna, but only ever really called Mari (pronounced 'marry'), which is very pretty.

Absolutely love it, one n for me though, as per the Gibson Brothers' disco hit.

Of the moated grange...I like it.

comedaygoday · 08/11/2011 14:46
